Preston Thompson Dreadnoughts (Adi/Madagascar Rosewood and an Adi/Mahogany)

A somewhat quick iPhone video with two of my incredible Preston Thompson guitars. The first is my newest dread with an Adirondack top and Madagascar Rosewood back and sides. The second one is my DMA (Adirondack top with Mahogany back and sides).
Preston and crew make exceptional guitars and I’m honored to own a few of them!
This video is in no way meant to be a comparison or review...the sound quality is that of an iPhone. I just love these two guitars and wanted to make a quick video.
Thanks for watching!

    The dread definitely has the deeper & warmest sound to me, who am a bluegrasser. I have a mahogany Martin DM which sounds great, but cannot dig out any more volume. Thanks for the good demo and the shining talent God has blessed you with. We are grateful.

    The rosewood sounds like a pre-war Martin D-28, the mahagony sounds like a D-18, both good but I prefer the tone of the rosewood. For what's that worth. LOL Awesome picking on both. You're a helluva picker Trey!
